The Best Sundaes In Philly Right Now - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"El Merkury in Rittenhouse has the kind of sundaes that your dentist would shame you for eating.  They start with refreshing vanilla soft serve and top it with chocolate sauce, pistachio flakes, or crunchy pretzel bits. But they don’t stop there. Each has a cinnamon-y crown in the form of a churro. Our go-to is the Salted Cajeta Crunch Churro Sundae, which features a salted caramel blend throughout. Don’t let the dentist stop you. Who is she, your mom?" - candis mclean

El Merkury - Review - Rittenhouse - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"There's only one place in Philly where you can get Honduran baleadas, Salvadoran pupusas, and churro sundaes, and that's El Merkury in Rittenhouse. Well, two, if you count the El Merkury stall at RTM. This casual Central American spot is great for a quick lunch of melty cheese, pulled pork, and black beans with diced jalapeños all in a warm, pillowy pouch. Or a casual dinner of beefy baleadas and one of the best soft serve creations in town for dessert. Most things on the menu are under $20 so, it's as affordable as it is delicious. photo credit: CANDIS R. MCLEAN photo credit: CANDIS R. MCLEAN photo credit: CANDIS R. MCLEAN Pause Unmute" - Candis R.

The 18 Best Places To Eat In Reading Terminal Market - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"This second location of El Merkury in Reading Terminal Market does not disappoint, despite having a smaller menu than the Rittenhouse Square spot. They only sell Honduran baleadas and Salvadoran pupusas, sides, and churros here. But the warm grab-and-go pouches full of melty cheese, black beans with diced jalapeños, and pork keep us coming back." - candis mclean, alison kessler

Best Seasonal Corn Dishes at Philly Restaurants | Eater Philly

"Center City’s El Merkury embraces the breadth and depth of Central American street food. Its elote loco is evidence of this, a delectable, fire-roasted corn smothered in a cilantro crema, queso fresco, and red pepper flakes." - George Banks-Weston
